At this moment, Tang Lian brought two of his subordinates and rushed over with surprise on his face, one of whom also carried a cloth shoe in his hand, this strange behavior immediately attracted the attention of many students, and Kong Lian's face became even more ugly after recognizing that it was his own shoe at a glance. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

Lu Zhen was overjoyed, and after letting them in, he asked, "But have you found the evidence?" ”

"Exactly." After Tang Lian gave up, he took the shoes handed by his subordinates, flipped them over again, and lit up the soles in front of everyone: "Adults, please take a look." ”

Whether it was an official or a student, they all subconsciously looked at his hand, only to see that it was a pair of half-worn shoes, the soles of which were a little badly worn, and on the top and toe of the shoes, there was a half-flattened insect corpse attached to it, and there was even some yellow juice left on the side.

"What does that mean?" The sentient beings asked in puzzlement, but the faces of Patten and other officials showed solemn expressions: "Where did you find this thing?" ”

"These shoes came from the No. 3 room of the ground character, and according to investigation, they were owned by a student named Kong Lian." Tang Lian immediately gave an answer, and as soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes focused on the face of the named person, causing his face to change greatly, and then he subconsciously shook his body and then retreated.

"Your name is Kong Lian? What is the relationship with the Qufu Kong family? Lu Zhen immediately narrowed his eyes, took a step forward, looked at the other party like a torch, and saw Kong Lian trembling for a while, and took two steps back again. Then, he reluctantly smiled and said, "Student...... It was Kong Lian who was able to enter the school because of the appreciation of the head of the family...... "His identity is known to the teachers and students here, so there is no possibility of concealing it, and the smile on his face is actually more ugly than crying."

After getting this answer, Lu Zhen has confirmed that he is undoubtedly the murderer, and also knows another motive for him to do so. Obviously, Kong Lian, who is a member of the Confucian family, is trying to blame himself for the crime, so as to force the local government to sue the court, so he did this thing!

This realization made his face also gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "So far, what else do you have to say, Kong Lian?" Don't hurry up and get the truth about your murder of Su Mu! ”

As soon as these words came out, even though those students had already guessed, they were still taken aback, and while exclaiming in unison, they also subconsciously avoided the side and distanced themselves from Kong Lian. The latter's face suddenly turned pale, and his body trembled slightly, but he still made the last insistence: "My lord...... Why can't students understand this? How can a pair of shoes condemn me? ”

"This official just mentioned that what can determine the case and arrest the culprit is not conjecture and assumption, but conclusive evidence, and this shoe is one of the extremely important pieces of physical evidence." Lu Zhen was already made up at this time, and since the other party refused to confess, he simply let these scholars see what was going on as an official, and patiently explained.

"You really tried to put the charge on the head of the official. Not only did he find a good time to kill, but he also deliberately left traces of climbing at the wall leading to the outside of the school. It's a pity that the more you do, the more flaws you will reveal! As he spoke, Lu Zhen explained the doubts on the wall and how insects could become key physical evidence.

These are all common sense, even these talented scholars understand after listening to them. And in this way, everyone looked at Kong Lian with more suspicion, and several scholars couldn't help but whisper on the side, obviously believing Lu Jin's inference.

"Kong Lian, what else do you have to say now? The evidence is conclusive, and you still refuse to plead guilty? Lu Zhen snorted again, majestic and extraordinary.

Kong Lian's heart had fallen to the bottom, and his body trembled even more like a fallen leaf in the wind. He really didn't expect that what he thought was an exquisite blame situation was so full of loopholes, and it only took half a day for the other party to find out all the truth, and he also found such evidence.

This reminded him of a passage that the eldest prince used to admonish himself: "You are indeed intelligent, but you are too conceited and never take your opponent seriously." In this way, if you are against an ordinary enemy, it may not be a problem, but if you run into a real opponent, you may become a high-eyed opponent and fall behind. If you don't change this nature, you will eventually suffer from it in the future! ”

At the time, he didn't understand this judgment, but now he realizes that this is really his weakness. It's a pity that it's too late to understand now.

But he still refuses to give in, even if he has been forced into a corner, he still has to make the last struggle: "Although there is some truth in what Lord Futai said, it is too childish to insist on accusing me of being a murderer with just such a dead insect." There may be bugs everywhere in this school, and it is possible that I accidentally stepped on my shoes, but it may not be the one you found by the wall! ”

This is indeed a refutable statement. In the future, this matter will no longer be a problem, because as long as the two are compared and the DNA pair is taken, it can be verified whether the two half-worms are the same one. But now in the Ming Dynasty, there is no way to come up with such a verification.

Seeing that Lu Jin's face changed slightly when he heard this, Kong Lian continued to squeeze and said: "My lord just said that he wanted to use physical evidence to judge the case instead of making assumptions, so he can't go back on his word, right?" How can a single bug be used as evidence? ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't feel embarrassed for Lu Jin. Although most of the people in this hall were convinced that Kong Lian was the murderer, it seemed that there was really no stronger evidence to find other than these. And because Lu Zhen was too full of words just now, he couldn't forcibly convict him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhen laughed at this time; "You really don't cry when you don't see the coffin, and you don't die if you don't see the Yellow River. Is this the only evidence you have? ”

Kong Lian, who had just given birth to a hint of luck, heard him say this, and chuckled in his heart: "What other evidence?" At the same time, his mind was racing and he was thinking about what he had missed or overlooked. But no matter how you think about it, I can't remember what the problem is.

As if he saw the other party's thoughts, Lu Jin's eyes were fixed on his face: "As the so-called Skynet is restored and not leaked, since you have done evil things, it is inevitable that there will be traces." You think that suffocating Su Mu with a quilt will not leave any clue evidence, but you don't know that this evidence has already been left on you, and you can't cover it up anyway! Come! Hold him for me! ”

As soon as Lu Zhen gave an order, the two brocade guards quickly pounced, like a tiger pounced on a sheep, and pressed Kong Lian on the spot like an eagle catching a chicken, he couldn't even dodge, let alone resist. It's just that he still shouted: "I don't accept it, you don't have conclusive evidence at all, why do you order someone to take me ......?"

However, his shout was quickly interrupted by Lu Jin: "This official asked people to take you just so that your incriminating evidence can be completely exposed, and there is nothing to hide." Lift the hem of his shirt and show his legs! ”

With this order, the two brocade guards immediately pulled their hands and snorted, and tore off his underwear, revealing their bare legs. This is actually a bit rude, and it is a great insult to the reader, but at this time, no one dissuaded and interfered, because everyone wanted to see what the evidence in Governor Lu's mouth was.

With such a thought, at the same time, everyone's eyes fell on Kong Lian's legs, looking at him with shame and indignation. But then, the shame was replaced by despair, and I only heard Lu Zhen say: "The wound on the tibia of your left leg was caused by compression, and it has only been formed for a short time, it was born in the past two days, right?" This is the ironclad proof that you killed Su Mu, the scar left by the fact that you leaned against the bed, struggled to suffocate him with the quilt, poured all your strength into this time, and unconsciously applied force to the edge of the bed. If you still refuse to admit it at this time, the official can also take you to the scene of the murder to verify it. You must not have noticed that there is such a scar on the edge of the bed where Su Mu was killed by you, and it should be able to match the wound on your leg! ”

At this point, Lu Zhen turned his face and shouted again: "So far, Kong Lian, are you still unwilling to admit your guilt?" ”

This time, the real evidence is conclusive, and it can be said that it is stronger than the evidence in the final judgment of many cases that have been determined to be ironclad. After being hit by this blow and being frightened by Lu Jin, Kong Lian was completely collapsed, not only his face was like ashes, but his body was even weaker, and he fell. If it weren't for the two brocade guards standing beside him, he would have collapsed to the ground.

He really didn't expect that his calculations would be so vulnerable, a bug, a wound, and he was completely speechless. And the consequences of this are even more serious, because he is a member of the Confucian family, which will inevitably affect the prestige and status of Confucius in the eyes of everyone.

And after seeing this scene, everyone around, both officials and students, looked surprised and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time. This is not only because of Lu Jin's inference, as meticulous as his name, but also because of the turbulent undercurrent hidden behind this matter!

Behind Kong Lian, but the huge and powerful Yan Shenggong Kong family, he was convicted, will the Kong family be saved if they die? At the same time, some people couldn't help but have a trace of suspicion, maybe Kong Lian did these things at the behest of the Kong family, at least with the acquiescence of the Kong family.

As for people like He Yuan, who knew the opposing attitudes of the Kong family and Lu Zhen on the matter of opening the sea, they felt that there was a lot of trouble behind this matter, and they began to worry about the next development of events and how to stand in line......
